If for nothing else I do
admire how you change your suit
inbetween the acts
as if
colors in their differing
made up for the lack
of tact...

I wish that I were less astute,
even in this fog
I slip
knowing you and loving less
squinting in the sun's reflect

of armour in anonymous

as if you thought I'd not detect
the hammer speaks
like a thumb print

I read your words
I feel your chest

knowing you're the Miller's son--

shame on you for trying to hide
the heart of you that kept the time
of everything between, I touch.

Have it your way, love, I'll miss

the spaces inbetween the words.

Very interesting write Serenity.  I liked these lines...

admire how you change your suit

Brother Tim ran himself over.

It would prolly be more entertaining if I just told the story, but actually, I was a little annoyed at him. It was a close a call, and I almost lost another.

and how do all these people end up in my flock?

Oh goodness, you get so down to the nitty gritty,
and I really love going there to read you.

You have to ask Ed to send you this tune

The depth of your words pull the reader in, wanting more, wanting to hear the whole story...amazing!
